Once we're done, this should not be hard. If it is, I consider it a bug and we'll fix it. There should be no issues linking to libdrizzle and libmysqlclient.

Already spoke with Michael Bayer from SQLAlchemy about getting a drizzle dialect done for that... it would be probably pretty easy to build a nice robust tool using SQLAlchemy in Python to do this for tons of dbs... without being bloatware.
